I have a picture with
my son...
playing in a basketball game
my daughter...
cheering in the game
my hubby...
recording the game
and perhaps what I love most
is that I was able to capture
this moment with the three of them
showing how we each
operate
function
work together
(and separately)
showing how
that although we are
a unit
a team
a unified force
we function independently
each with varying roles
because...
sometimes we're in the game
sometimes we coach the game
and sometimes we stand along side and cheer
But life has a way of...
distracting us
pulling us aside
drawing us out of character
(and forcing Game 7)
so we must each remember
who we are
whose we are
and our purpose
in the game
because it is then and only then when we will win...
and never lose
A very timely reminder! I had to laugh at 'and forcing game 7' as I realized you live in the San Francisco are. Go Golden State Warriors! So thoughtful that I am a child of God. I am right before you in our Five Minute Friday link up today but wanted to read your post after reading the title. Glad I stopped by.
ReplyDeleteDebbie, I was wondering if anyone would follow my "forcing Game 7" comment! Thanks for noticing... and thanks for stopping by today.
DeleteSo so true! Great post.
ReplyDeleteThank you Tara!
DeleteHa ha ha (forcing Game 7)! Oh Tondra, I love that little aside in your post!
ReplyDeleteAnd the idea of your entire family being there in the game, what a precious memory! :)
Thanks for sharing your poetry as always!
Love,

Thank you Tammy! I uploaded the photo as well!
DeleteLove this- we all have a different role when it comes to the game. Stopping over from FMF. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Rosanne... I'll be sure to stop by later to read your take on today's prompt.
